Have a look at Spartan Ops for example.

People complained about re-used areas, Episode 3 gave us new maps to play on.

People complained about Palmer, 343 got rid of her for Episode 5 by introducing Roland in episode 4.

Season 1 has been pretty much done by release with the last episode or 2 getting polished.

It seems as if 343 expected a certain response and adapted accordingly, im impressed that they played the community the way they did.

Also the character building has been pretty good, they make us like Spartan Thorne and then he ends up in danger.

Say what you will about the game but 343's Story telling is top notch.

Halo 4 is not Halo 3 and made by Bungie.

Therefore it is bad.

  • 12.15.2012 9:50 AM PDT

Agreed.

  • 12.15.2012 9:50 AM PDT

The first few episodes of SpOps were already done.

I guarantee you Spartan Ops Season 1 was complete before the game even released. They haven't been "changing things" to appeal to the Spartan Ops community.

Frankie said they are all done except a few which are still being polished at the end.

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

What about the broken matchmaking? You still can't play good games with your friends if they aren't as skilled as you are.

Stop brown nosing 343i, People had massive expectations for Halo 4, and 343i failed to deliver.

Why Bungie, why would you do this?! - Halo Community

But as it turns out, Spartan Ops was boring as -blam!- to begin with.

You blaming 343 for your friends lack of skill??

Also last I checked Halo 3 broke up equal sized parties to, I always laughed when it happened. Oh and im not brown nosing im giving props where they are due.

They made this game for people to enjoy and play and your just ripping it apart looking for any fault. Matchmaking isn't broken either it works pretty dam well to me.

regardless how you feel about cod its the most popular series, the fact that halo is second to it makes halo look good.

CoD community a million or so above Halo on xbox and you expect Halo to be above CoD?

The only reason Halo 3 was at the top several years with CoD 4 was because Halo was an established franchise while CoD just came into the spotlight with a small fanbase.

Notice how big CoD is to Halo now and you'll understand Halo won't be at the top anymore for the forseeable future.

Give an example of broken matchmaking, its thrown around a lot but no examples are given.

Also I am aware of CoD and its 6 other games before CoD 4 came out but it had a small fanbase.

Halo had a massive fanbase at the release of Halo CE and it continued a story that people invested in up to Halo 3.

Call of Duty was left stuck in all the WW2 shooters and competing with medal of honour. CoD 4 brought it into the popular shooters bringing the medium into an untouched market, current day.

But it took until MW2 (3 years later) for Halo 3 to get knocked off the top because CoD 4 and WaW didn't have a large enough fanbase on their own.

MW2 absorbed the community of both IW and Treyarch and with no Halo game in between 2007 and 2010 allowed the CoD fanbase to grow.
